Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • baunFPS baun (@baunFPS) reported

    @itsMACHgg @pandxrz its very different for them, when they switch to origin they are playing an edited game FOR them, like its barebones apex that is made specifically so that there isnt lag or server issues bc its not even connected to the actual game, similar to what overwatch does for comp

  • RDLee Randy Lee 🎮 (@RDLee) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Had 1,999 Overwatch coins. Bought the premium season 3 Battle Pass for 1,000 and now have a 0 balance. Is this a known issue? If not, what can I do to recover the missing coin balance that vanished upon the purchase?

  • superbabsie 🦇🏳️‍⚧️Batgirl🏳️‍⚧️🦇 (@superbabsie) reported

    Overwatch devs are ****** clueless, I swear yall look at twitch chat in every mercy main's stream and decided "Yeah that's a reasonable problem, her movement, and definitely not that she can damage boost ******** out of everything."

  • uzumakibarrag3 ant (@uzumakibarrag3) reported

    @fromkdwithluv EXACTLY, like don’t get me wrong, **** BLIZZARD as a company, but i’ll still play Overwatch 2 and COD sometimes, and ya know why? Cuz i wanna support the devs that put time, effort, and so much more into that game. especially if they were affected by the issues in the company.

  • dietcokecowboyy ceej (@dietcokecowboyy) reported

    Is overwatch not working for anyone else?

  • sfink_z da gruff 🔞 (@sfink_z) reported

    @DimPacifist Ive noticed most overwatch models have horribly broken ankles

  • mlgspacememe GB (@mlgspacememe) reported

    The only problem now is that these only apply to OW1 skins. Overwatch 2 skins (Including base legendaries for characters like Kiriko) haven't had their prices changed at all. Hopefully this change comes soon because the current price difference is downright laughable

  • ZakOnlyFacts Zak (@ZakOnlyFacts) reported

    @PlayOverwatch I was playing overwatch for the first time but I couldn’t get into any games it seemed that nobody was playing. That’s when I realised that Overwatch is a dead game. Fix this issue before I switch to a real and a fun game like warzone

  • RayBotEXE RayBot.EXE (@RayBotEXE) reported

    switch players, is overwatch not letting you play? having some trouble

  • Anime_women1 Pearl (@Anime_women1) reported

    Is anyone having trouble playing Overwatch? My licenses need to restore, but won't? Keeps saying error, and I've already signed out and back in, and it will not let me do anything. #overwatch

  • ItzTFNNightWolf 9TH Samurai (@ItzTFNNightWolf) reported

    @jerry_cat1 @PlayOverwatch I’m having the same issue Overwatch get this fixed!!

  • Skrillin77 Skiller (@Skrillin77) reported

    anybody else having trouble with the sensitivity setting in Overwatch 2? I usually keep my sens at 4.30 but now it can only go by multiples of 1

  • NotTxcker Tucker (@NotTxcker) reported

    You'd think overwatch is made by some random awful indie company with how bad servers and disconnect issues are after an update lmao

  • purrezii mikey ✧彡: VTuber (@purrezii) reported

    :( does anyone else still have the issue of overwatch 2 not showing their correct hours???

  • Zaners12 Zaners (@Zaners12) reported

  • liliYizhuo lili ^o^ (@liliYizhuo) reported

  • Captain_Heinz Heinz (@Captain_Heinz) reported

    I guess I won’t be playing overwatch until they fix the sens bug.

  • RDLee Randy Lee 🎮 (@RDLee) reported

    @BlizzardCS Had 1,999 Overwatch coins. Bought the OW2 premium season 3 Battle Pass for 1,000 and now have a 0 balance. Is this a known issue? If not, what can I do to recover the missing coin balance that vanished upon the purchase?

  • _Nenoxx /dev/dan (@_Nenoxx) reported

    @PlayOverwatch It's 2023, why can't you rejoin a ranked game that you left for any reason? Like a DC from your server, for example. Overwatch is legit the only game with which I've had this problem

  • M3TAEGO oh ok (@M3TAEGO) reported

  • pondehaha p😎ntus (@pondehaha) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN having a problem with overwatch where it disconnects me from the game and I can’t reconnect but it also doesn’t give me the 15min penalty from comp

  • Tiredclown_ パンダ 🐼🍰 (@Tiredclown_) reported

    Did overwatch disconnect your battle accounts? Or is it just me??

  • cloudy_cassidy cass 😈 (@cloudy_cassidy) reported

    I usually never take to social media but-- There should be absolutely no way a Widowmaker can one shot head shot a Ramattra. #Overwatch fix your game. This has to be the grossest change you've made. Tanks shouldn't have less health than a Bastion. Period.

  • dendroscripta 𝔸𝕝 ℍ𝕒𝕚𝕥𝕙𝕒𝕞 (@dendroscripta) reported

    //I now remember why I hate overwatch 2 It lags so badly on my pc that you can't even decide if I'm **** at the game or its lagging

  • colecassidys 😊❤️😊 ⬅ me and zenyatta (@colecassidys) reported

    screaming that blizzard is out here commissioning ******* overwatch songs instead of putting that money towards like any other issue ovw is facing rn. dude im tired of all this extraneous set dressing constantly

  • AdicusDeath Adicus (@AdicusDeath) reported

    @ItsRomnus Its there right to do so. it is NOT their right to send hate, to doxx, to try and ruin people's career to bully and to cause issues for innocent people who just want to play a game. Those same people still play WoW, overwatch, Diablo, assassin creed, minecraft and many more.
